Musk replied to user X about the future of Neuralink replacing phones.
The message came a week after the South African billionaire hinted that he wanted to create an X smartphone . He also threatened to ban iPhones and Apple devices in the company after the company introduced OpenAI’s AI model into iPhones, iPads, and Macs.
Previously in January, Elon Musk’s Neuralink said it had implanted brain chips in humans. Noland Arbaugh, 29 years old, living in Arizona (USA), quadriplegic, registered for chip implantation after Musk’s company was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Three months after Arbaugh’s surgery was completed, Neuralink posted a detailed report on the patient’s recovery progress. Musk also devoted many articles to update the status of the first person implanted with a brain chip.
At the end of May, on Business Insider , Arbaugh said he felt like he was alive again after having the Neuralink chip implanted. “The device connects to my computer using Bluetooth and has a Neuralink app that allows access to the implant, so I can connect and disconnect it at will. Sometimes, I start my day at 7 a.m. and use the device until 11 p.m. For me, time passes quickly,” Arbaugh said.
Neuralink was co-founded by Musk in 2016 with 7 other members, but most have left. The American billionaire has great ambitions when he believes Neuralink will change the world , opening up the potential of telepathy. In 2019, he said humans would “merge and achieve symbiosis with AI”. However, security people are concerned that the system may be attacked by hackers .
